London Truth: \ striking estimate
Of the probable duration Of theexistence
Of the House of Lords was given by
Lord Napier Of Magdala to the tallow-
chambers one day last week. AS
long. said hiS Lordship. las the House
Of Lords numbers among its members
such men a. Lord Beaconsfleld. Lord
Tennyson, and Lord Shaftesbury
believe il will continue 10 retain the
confidence OF the British people. As
the House no longer numbers among its
members Lord Beaconstield or Lord
Shaftcsbury. it appears that in Lord
Napier's estimation it has already lost
two-thirds Of the confidence of tho
people. aud if the other one-third is I'd
be measured by the attendance of Lore
Tennyson. the light Of the House Of
Lords must be waxing almost as dim a
that she'd by the tallow-ehandlers them
selves.

1t is perfectly preposterous to introduce
pepsin and other artificial solvents into the
stomach, in the expectation that they will
assist digestion by acting on the food itself.
They will not. Nor is it possible thus to
overcome dyspepsia. The only way to con-
quer that disorder, and prevent the numer-
Gus diseases and disabilities which it assUr-
eddy provokes, is To renew the activity of
gastric action by STRENGTHENING the stomach.
Hostetters Stomach Bltters eradicates the
most inveterate forms of indigestion by re-
storing vitality to the alimentary organs,
and those which are tributary TO them. The
liver, the bowels, the kidneys and the nerves,
no less than the stomach, experience the
invigorative effects of that standard tonic,
which possesses Alternative properties that
greatly enhance its beneficial influence, and
give permanence to its effects which they
would not otherwise possess.

A cry of terror and of anger brought
me into the room. Plowitz had seized

anger and alarm. In a moment more

been for ever profaned by Plowitz's
hateful kisses, that overtaxed form
would have sunk helpless and ex-
hausted into his coward arms, when l
sprang into the room. and with one

felled him to the ground.

which the General began in the first
person singular and then changed to
the third person. 1t is now first pub
lished. +" In the lightof subsequent
events the following extract is Of pecu-
liar interest:
It is remarkable with what facility
the American mind adapts itself to sit
uations, and this has never been so
strikingly illustrated as in the great
movements of 1861, which transformed
in so short time so gre at a multitude
of young men from the unlimited indie
pendence of American citizens to the
willing but severe restraints of military
discipline
Col. Garfield, writir q to friend at
that time, said: IL have had Il curious
interest in watching the process in my
own mind by which the fabric of my
life IS being demolished and recon-
structed to meet the new condition of
affairs. One by one my old plans and
aims, modes of thought and feeling,
are found to be incop sistent with pres
ent duty, and are set aside to give
place to the new structure of military
life, 1t is not without a regret almost
fearful at times that / look upon the
ruins. But if, rs the reSultof the brok
en- plans and shattered individual lives
of thousands of American citizens, we
can see, on the ruins OF our old national
errors, new andcnduring fabric arise,
based on larger freedom and higher
justice, it will be small sacrifice indeed.
For myself am content ed with such a
prospect, and, regarding my life Is Civ
en- to the country, am only anxious to
make as much of tt as possible before

that Judge Davis always signed his

FARMERS HOMES.

The farmers home il, much OF the time, in
the field, and out about the premises or of to
the market place, and hence, says The Live
Stock journal, he suffers from no confinement
under bad conditions. Even II HE nights under
the roof are not exactly Of the beet, owing to
being confined In close quarters or from bad
air arising from under or within the house, his
day outdoors dissipates much OF evil that comes
10 him in the nighttime, and he MAY not be ma
teriaily harmed. But with the wife the case il
quite different. The house is her leld, and she
cannot, il she would, escape from any damaging
influences that exist under the roof The plan
for such farm buildings a. are to be erected the
coming year should be very carefully consider
ed during the winter, and not only the plans,
but the location, to drainage and distance
from any point or points upon the farm whence
malaria may arise. As ia well known, the pre-
vailing winds are from the west and southwest;
and, perhaps, the most unusual OF all are from
the northeast. Hence, the question of location
Is important, If there is any especially damaging
spot on or near the farm, and should be consid-
cred and acted upon. Careful researches by
BOwditch, .Petenskofer and others have quite
closely connected the prevalence OF consump-
tion ard certain low forms of fever with the APP
proach OF the water-line or its nearness to the
surface. Standing water at a less distance than
six 10 seven feet should warn against building
upon such a site. At any rate. this should not
be done unless thorough drainage could be
practsed upon the deep soil. Living close up
on the borders OF a body OF water be il stream
or lake, is not necessarily prejudicial TO health
yet there Is something particularly damaging in
the influence exerted by confined moisture be-
meath dwelling or in the soil upon which q
building Is placed. Therefore. the conditions
here briefly pointed out cannot be safely over
